Pet care experience

Love animals excellent pet owner

I have been house sitting for pets since I was a teenager. Both for cats and dogs. I have a very great spirit and love animals. Animals tend to come to me and feel comfortable at first meeting. I've owned dogs growing up and I take care of one now thats my own. And I love it. Everyone that has hired me has appreciated and loved the care that I provide to their pets. I'm on time and always give the pets a good time on a walk and or at the dog park. I love being out doors. I have my own transportation, very easy and flexible schedule and can be on call.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for the animals if they were my own. With warm hellos and happy playfulness. I comfort them and play with the animals to give them full attention.

Dog Walking • Feb 26, 2020

Yoel was great! It was my first time having someone walk Blanca for me and she is usually very timid and takes a minute to warm up so I was expecting some hesitation. Due to a recent and unfortunate situation she was very protective of me and even growled at Yoel, which was unexpected and very uncharacteristic, but he didn't even seem phased. He remained calm and tried making her comfortable so she could warm up slowly. She eventually relaxed on their walk and was ready the next day for walk #2. I will definitely be scheduling with Yoel again.

Yoel was great as always! He always sends us photos of our pets to set our minds at ease. This visit he was even able to win over our pathologically shy, anxious cat and we were so relieved that she got some affection while we were gone. Yoel always seems to really enjoy our pets, which is a great feeling for us now that we have our hands full traveling with a baby.

Yoel was fantastic with our dog and cat over the holidays! Our dog warms to women much faster than men but LOVED Yoel. We had a minor baby disaster and had to change our dates on Yoel at the last minute, and he was extremely accommodating. His communication is top notch and really eased our minds. We also had a problem with our gate refusing to open, and Yoel was a VERY GOOD SPORT about having to climb the fence, which we are still embarrassed about! #yikes Enthusiastic 5 stars for Yoel!!!

Yoel is a great person to help with whatever your pet may need. He has taken care of my dog and my cats over the years and is a well loved caretaker to many of his other friends animals while they are away. He's reliable and dependable and totally loved by animals. I would recommend him with the highest regard.
